Take black magic marker and rub the inside of the collar. Right where it catches before you lock it on, try to rub that high spot off the inside of the collar. Why full moon or half moon the collar when it all there is at the edge is some high spot tagging it. So find the nick and dress it down with a tiny quarter moon jeweler's file so you have more control how much you're taking off.
The ID is going to wobble on that end you take material out on a 360° move with a dremel. That flat surface kissing that inner bearing race has to be flat so that is not cocked in the wheel and not bending onto the axle with a lot more seal lip opening you 360'd the ID.
Back to that one nicked high spot and when assembled, you should be able to slip every part over that axle and now slide the axle with all the parts being static thru the wheel between your knees meaning. This way, you know it went thru the outer block(s); down the good collar; down the center race; the center spacer; the center race; the high spot collar; out that block.
That means if you could stack some news papers high enough under the wheel, you could push the axle in like butter: don't forget the grease down the whole axle shaft and clean what squeezes out the other side and onto the threads of the axle is a little dab'ill do ya.
